We introduce the notion of angular values for deterministic linear difference equations and random linear cocycles. We measure the principal angles between subspaces of fixed dimension as they evolve under nonautonomous or random linear…

We classify all smooth flat Riemannian metrics on the two-dimensional plane. In the complete case, it is well-known that these metrics are isometric to the Euclidean metric. In the incomplete case, there is an abundance of…

A recent Letter proposed changing the dimensionless status of the radian and steradian within the SI, while allowing the continued use of the convention to set the angle 1 radian equal to the number 1 within equations, providing this is…

Several inequivalent definitions of the geometric measure of entanglement (GM) have been introduced and studied in the past. Here we review several known and new definitions, with the qualifying criterion being that for pure states the…

Corresponding to the concept of $p$-angular distance $\alpha_p[x,y]:=\left\lVert\lVert x\rVert^{p-1}x-\lVert y\rVert^{p-1}y\right\rVert$, we first introduce the notion of skew $p$-angular distance $\beta_p[x,y]:=\left\lVert \lVert…

The uncertainty principle places a fundamental limit on the accuracy with which we can measure conjugate physical quantities. However, the fluctuations of these variables can be assessed in terms of different estimators. We propose a new…

A brief summary of the objections to the relational nature of inertial mass, gravitational mass and electric charge is presented. The objections are refuted by showing that the measurement process of comparing an instrument reference clock…

The conformability of angular observales (angular momentum and azimuthal angle) with the mathematical rules of quantum mechanics is a question which still rouses debates. It is valued negatively within the existing approaches which are…

Many data analysis problems can be cast as distance geometry problems in \emph{space forms} -- Euclidean, spherical, or hyperbolic spaces. Often, absolute distance measurements are often unreliable or simply unavailable and only proxies to…

A linear transformation f(S) of configurational entropy with length scale dependent coefficients as a measure of spatial inhomogeneity is considered. When a final pattern is formed with periodically repeated initial arrangement of point…

In this paper we reconsider the problem of the Euler parametrization for the unitary groups. After constructing the generic group element in terms of generalized angles, we compute the invariant measure on SU(N) and then we determine the…

Some recent papers have argued that frequency should have the dimensions of angle/time, with the consequences that 1 Hz = $2\pi$ rad/s instead of 1 s$^{-1}$, and also that $\nu = \omega$ and $h = \hbar$. This letter puts the case that this…

Magnitude is a numerical isometric invariant of metric spaces, whose definition arises from a precise analogy between categories and metric spaces. Despite this exotic provenance, magnitude turns out to encode many invariants from integral…

Uniform measures have played a fundamental role in geometric measure theory since they naturally appear as tangent objects. For instance, they were essential in the groundbreaking work of Preiss on the rectifiability of Radon measures.…
